GREENVILLE, S.C. -- Makayla Willette scored both goals in a 2-0 win last week before playing a key role in the Sabercats' 1-0 win over Lincoln Christian, and the National Christian College Athletic Association has awarded her with the title of NCCAA Student-Athlete of the Week.

It was Willette's first-ever brace, as her two goals lifted Maranatha to their first road win of the season over Mount Mary University. Willette went on to play a key role in the Sabercats' 1-0 home victory of NCCAA DI opponents, Lincoln Christian, on Saturday.

Willette and the Sabercats are already preparing for the 2021 NCCAA North Region Tournament November 4-6. Regionals will be held at Faith Baptist Bible College in Ankeny, Iowa.
